from Mysteries to Die For
Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player, and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you at the heart of mystery, murder, and mayhem. Some episodes will be original stories, others will be classics that helped shape the mystery genre we know today. These are arrangements, which means instead of word-for-word readings, you get a performance meant to be heard. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes (unless it's really bad)This is Season 4, A Word Before Dying. This season contains original stories written just for you and built around that classic mystery theme of the last word before dying.Episode 9, the last in this season, is about standing your ground.
